Lying there a tiny voice of pain creeps in
Begins to grow
Heartbeats quicken
Pulse pounds in her ears
The voice grows louder
Soon pictures flood her brain...
He's twisted up in pain
The tears run down his face
Sobs rack his body
He's slipping away
It plays out like a horror movie in her mind
She's shaking now
The feeling of deepest darkest sorrow floods her heart
Black so thick, settles in
Nothing she can do...
But sit and watch the images in her mind
Questions run and crash in her brain
Like moths at a light
And she's trying to push them away
What can she do?
What can SHE do?
What if...what if...she'd never return from it.
